For The Moment, A Sanskrit Illumination Poem by Mary Angela Douglas
For The Moment, A Sanskrit Illumination
for the moment, a Sanskrit illumination-
and clouds slip over a polished moon
they are throwing voices on the
surface of things
I am dying from the sand of all
replies
but this condensation of infinite
sadness
diamond by diamond, will appear
much more like love than
evanescence
so many light-year generations later-
